History: (Note: This is a revised version of my original application, with only a few minor changes to the personality section.)
Envy is one of seven Homunculi (artificial humans) created by the main villain of the series known as “the Father”. It's not clear when Envy was created, but like his brethren, he's lived for quite a few centuries. He was the instigator of the Ishvalan War of Extermination, and having taken the form of an Amertrian solider, he shot an Ishvalan child, thus sparking the conflict which would result in the deaths of hundreds, if not thousands of people (including Scar's brother and Winry's parents).
He first encountered Edand Al at the 5th Laboratory (accompanied by Lust), after the Elric Brothers learn about the process by which Philosopher's Stones can be created and stumbled upon the alchemical circle used to produce them. It is at this point that the Elric Brothers learn of the existence of Homunculi, though they are unaware of Envy's shape-shifting abilities, since he kept his powers in check during the confrontation.
Envy acts as a spy and assassin for the Father, often using his unique shape-shifting abilities to disguise himself as military officials in order to attain sensitive information. As such, when he learned that Maes Hughes had figured out the Father's plans and intended to warn Roy Mustang, he disguised himself as Maria Ross in order to ascertain how much Hughes knew. He then impersonated Huges' wife and promptly executed Hughes. This set into motion a chain of events which led to the real Maria Ross being falsely blamed for Hughes' murder and her subsequent “execution” by Roy Mustang. In truth, Mustang helped to fake her death and then sent her out of the country.
Once the Elric Brothers learn that King Bradley is actually a Homunculus, Envy and Gluttony are sent out to capture them and take them into custody. During the course of the battle, Edward, Ling, and Envy are swallowed by Gluttony and end up inside a pocket dimension without any means of escape. It is here that Envy reveals his true form—that of a gigantic green behemoth—and attacks. It is only when Edward says that he can free them from Gluttony's stomach that Envy grudgingly agrees not to harm him. In exchange, he promises to tell Edward what the meaning of a “sacrifice” is... but of course as soon as Envy is freed, he admits that he lied. Regardless, Edward gets some of his questions answered by the Father... and Ling ends up becoming the vessel for the soul of the Homunculus named Greed. After Edward has been informed of his rather precarious situation as a “potential sacrifice,” Envy tells him that should he attempt to interfere with the Father's plans, they will kill his friend, Winry Rockbell.
As the Father's new watchdog, Envy is the one sent to retrieve Dr. Marcoh as he attempts to flee north, but he is subdued by the combined efforts of Scar, May Chang, and Dr. Marcoh. He is reduced to a weakened state and is entrusted to May Chang so that she might learn the secret of immortality, thus saving her clan. He spends the six months that comprise the timeskip stuck inside a mason jar and being cared for by May Chang. But he tricks May Chang into returning him to Central, which she manages to do during the Promised Day—the day upon which the Father will implement his grand scheme. It is on that day that Envy is able to regain his “default” human form once more. He then escapes from May Chang's clutches and seeks to prevent Edward and his allies from putting a stop to the Father's plans.
